Chapter 19 - Upward Bound
Yoba Academy - 9:30am
Y/N POV
The season of winter has blanketed the city with a cold breeze as Yoba students made their way to school. While walking towards class with Saki, we noticed the electric kiosks in the school lobby showing Peaky P-Key's new member.
Student A: No way! L/N-san joined Peaky P-Key?!
Student B: It's said L/N-san is actually DJ Noir.
Student C: You mean the DJ who took Japan by storm when he was 15?!
Student A: That's the one. It seems P-Key decided to cash in on his talent.
After hearing that various conversations among fellow students, Saki seemed a bit worried...
Saki: It seems more attention will be placed on you.
Y/N: I didn't think Esora will actually advertise it on the kiosks where anybody can see it.
Saki: On the bright side, you can preform on stage again.
Y/N: I still need to get used to the Peaky P-Key system and the way they do things.
Saki: Yeah, it's probably way different to the way you did things.
Y/N: I do intend to give the quest my all.
Saki: You figure it out, you always do. I'll see you later darling. *kisses my cheek*
Y/N: Yup, see you later.
Rinku: Hey it's P-Key's new member!
Y/N: Good morning girls.
Muni: Morning Y/N, you satisfied?
Y/N I guess. Are you girls content with how things are?
Maho: We said we'd support your every move, but you still owe us some support from time to time.
Y/N: That was the promise.
Rei: We're excited to see you preform at the cultural festive.
Rinku: I bet is gonna be amazing!
Muni: So Y/N, that mean your dating Kyoko Yamate?
Y/N: Where have you heard that?
Maho: The entire school is shipping you two.
Y/N: It's not true.
Muni: We'll see.
*School bell rings*
Y/N: Let's head to class Rinku.
Rinku: Right behind you!
During Lunch - 11:00am
After many classes that gave some much needed information about many outstanding assignments, the bell rung which meant it was my favorite time of the day: Lunch. Making my way to the order board, I went for shrimp pasta and iced coffee. Suddenly out of nowhere, Kyoko appears behind me and started pushing me towards our units table.
Y/N: Kyoko? Why are you pushing me?
Kyoko: Your one of us now, that means sitting with us everyday at lunch.
Esora: Hello Y/N, we saved you a spot.
Y/N: Hello ladies, how's it going?
Yuka: Really good actually, thank you for asking.
Shinobu: Could be better....
Y/N: I know you may not like me, but let's try to make the best of it okay?
Shinobu: Fine...but if you cross me, I'll rip your vocal cords right out of your throat.
Y/N: That's a bit much Shinobu, but I get the message.
Shinobu: So long as we understand each other.
Kyoko: Baby steps you two.
Yuka: Down to business, Y/N still needs to know how we do things.
Kyoko: We usually practice after school every other day, that gives Shinobu enough time to compose a song for us to preform.
Shinobu: It would usually take about two weeks to prepare for a show.
Yuka: Maybe you two can create songs together.
Shinobu: Not happening...
Esora: Aww why not?
Y/N: Yeah? I mean, don't you base your music creations on what I did in the past.
Shinobu: Eh? How did you know?
Y/N: It's easy to pick out indications of my old work. I'm not as stupid as you make me to be.
Shinobu: Whatever, I guess your style is still relatively useful.
Esora: You still need a costume Y/N, let's think of one right now.
Shinobu: We would need to think about boy's clothing, think pants instead of a skirt.
Yuka: Hmm your right, any ideas Y/N?
Y/N: I'm thinking: A custom white P-key jacket, white headphones, Black hat, black shirt, black straight pants, and black on white shoes?
Kyoko: So make a male version of my outfit?
Y/N: I guess that's one way to put it.
Kyoko: I love it, Esora will take care of the sewing.
Yuka: If we're all good with the meeting, let's meet up some time to take pictures and promote our new member more.
Y/N: I'm being hyped up way too much.
Kyoko: What's wrong with showing off what we have?
Y/N: That's exactly my issue, won't it be unfair that the best Unit in Yoba got even more talented. It won't be fair for contests.
Shinobu: Then why don't you sit out the Sunset Stage?
Yuka: Eh? Why? If he's an official member, then he should preform with us.
Y/N: No Shinobu is right, if those are the rules then I have not choice but to follow.
Kyoko: Then the cultural festival will by Y/N's debut.
Shinobu: Let's see if he's as advertised.
Y/N: I'm all that and a bag a chips.
Yuka: Peaky P-Key will more interesting with you on board Y/N.
Esora: I'm happy we can asset our dominance in this school.
Shinobu: Hope your happy...
Y/N: Yeah, I am...
Time skip - After School
Kyoko: Hey Y/N! Wait for me!
Y/N: Hey Kyoko, care to join me for some coffee.
Kyoko: Sure, let me take you to a place I recommend. *grabs my arm*
Y/N: After you.
Kyoko brought to a Cafe not to far away from school, where the front reads Cafe Vinyl. Come to think of it, Rinku may have mentioned this place once or twice before.
Barista: Welcome! Ah Kyoko good to see you, who's this with you- Your boyfriend?
Kyoko: Yup that's right! This is Y/N L/N.
Y/N: Wait what?!
Barista: Nice to meet you Y/N.
Y/N: It's a pleasure...wait I know you...Airi Amano?
Airi: Oh, so you know who I am?
Y/N: Yeah, you preformed Wow War Tonight with that other singer, you were really amazing.
Airi: Fufu, well now I'm just a humble barista. What can I get you two.
Kyoko: I'll take a Iced Coffee.
Y/N: Light Roast Cappuccino please.
Airi: Coming right up!
Y/N: Iced coffee really? It's cold outside.
Kyoko: I really like the drinks here, the coffee beans they use are of high quality.
Y/N: Anyways, what's on your mind?
Kyoko: You and I are partners now. So there for, we need to keep building on that relationship.
Y/N: Where are you going with this?
Kyoko: You know, since we're gonna be together more often. I feel that I should become someone important to you...more than a friend or unit member.
Y/N: I think I know what comes next.
Kyoko: I really love you Y/N L/N, can you go out with me?
Y/N: You can't be serious? Did you hear the narrative going around the school?
Kyoko: Of course I did, remember I said i'd do anything to you by boyfriend.
Her confession didn't surprised me in the slightest. The look in Kyoko's eyes sparkled as she waited for my answer. However, I remember back when Rika confessed to me- I just told her just to wait for me. How would Miyu, Saki and Tsubaki would feel if I dated someone else?....in this moment, I would make a faithful decision that will cause a tremor in a long time relationship.
Y/N: Kyoko...I accept.
Kyoko: We're inseparable now...N/N.
Y/N: I didn't hear that nickname in a long time.
Airi: Here you two go, please enjoy!
Y/N: Thanks Airi.
Kyoko: Yep, thanks a lot!
Y/N: You sure it won't cause problem with the others?
Kyoko: Your sometimes too cautious Y/N, Esora told you to relax every once in a while.
Y/N: I know, but I mean Shinobu still doesn't approve of me yet and Miyu....
Kyoko: It'll be fine, I'll talk to them if they have reservations about our new relationship.
Y/N: If you think it will be fine, then I guess I have nothing to fret about.
Kyoko: Also can you ask Izumo to move out of your house.
Y/N: Why?
Kyoko: So I can live with you, you know since were now dating
Y/N: I can't just tell Saki to pack up and beat it.
Kyoko: Sure you can, if she's still living with you I don't feel to nicely of you harboring a rival.
Y/N: Don't let it bother you, Saki won't try anything.
Kyoko: If you say so. Can you do something for me?
Y/N: Another favor?
Kyoko: Can you work things out with Shinobu.
Y/N: I shouldn't be the one to hear that. Shinobu fired first, so there for she should bury the hatchet.
Kyoko: Both of you are similar in that way, you two feel like the other should apologize.
Y/N: She "was" #1 fan at one point. To be completely honest, I really wanted to be her friend but she won't let up any time soon with her hostility.
Kyoko: Just try okay? Please...for me...
Y/N: Fine...let's hope this doesn't go south.
Kyoko: Thank you darling.
Y/N: Saki always calls me that *whispers to myself*
After enjoying our little treat we parted ways at the plaza, saying our farewells to each other.
The "mourning" after, the word got out of me joking Peaky P-key to the other DJ units via a blog post.
Photon Maiden POV:
Ibuki: It seems that Y/N is now a full member of Peaky P-key, they even made him an outfit to suit his new role.
Towa: Kinda wished he was still our manger.
Noa: You heard it from him. He doesn't get along with the Producer.
Ibuki: I don't know the entire story, but what I've overheard was that the Producer and Y/N had a verbal confrontation.
Noa: I'm glad it didn't escalate further.
Ibuki: It's a good thing that Y/N can kept his composure and walked away.
Towa: Yeah...but I'm really happy for him! I hope we can beat him one day.
Noa: Whether he's a rival or not he's still number one of my cute list.
Ibuki: Then we just have to work harder, right Saki?
Towa: Saki-chan?
Ibuki: Are you alright?
Saki: Y/N.......why?
Merm4id POV:
Rika: Huh? Y/N has joined Peaky P-key?
Saori: Yep, that's what I just read.
Dahlia: Come to think of it Y/N seems to familiar, don't you think?
Marika: Yeah, he's seems like he's hiding something all the time.
Saori: Well, whatever it is he's joined a unit that's said to be the very best in Japan...
Dahlia: We should be happy for him, he's finally get to use his singing ability to good use.
Marika: What's wrong Rika? You seem sad?
Rika: Why do I feel envious of Kyoko-chan? Do you think she'll take away Y/N?
Saori: That's very likely, you saw the way she looks at him.
Lyrical Lily POV:
Kurumi: Did you guys hear? Y/N joined has recently Esora-chan's DJ unit!
Haruna: Did he? Good for him.
Miiko: Miiko found out Y/N was once the famous DJ Noir that caught Japan by storm with his unit.
Haruna: Eh? We should ask him for tips on how to get better.
Kurumi: Maybe we can go to his first show, I can ask Esora-chan to let us in.
Miiko: That's sounds like a wonderful idea!
Kurumi: Their next show is on their school cultural festival.
Haruna: Then we we don't have to ask permission, we can enter freely.
Miiko: What do you think Miyu-chan?
Miyu: O-oh I believe that is a good plan.
Haruna: Is something bothering you Miyu-san?
Miyu: I feel like my heart is aching, I can't explain it. When I think of Y/N.....
Haruna: You feel betrayed don't you?
Miyu: Betrayed is a strong word...
Kurumi: Is okay Miyu-chan, you should speak with Y/N next time he comes to teach.
RONDO POV
Nagisa: Shino texted me that Y/N joined her unit!
Tsubaki: What did you say?
Nagisa: Yeah, Kyoko invited Y/N and he accepted after a while.
Aoi: Y/N finally made he's decision. I'd thought he'd join us, It is what it is now.
Hiiro: I'm sure Y/N did what was best for him.
Nagisa: Still, I thought we had something special with him.
Tsubaki: He didn't even approach us or told after his decision...
Hiiro: Tsubaki-chan...
Aoi: You know how he is. He moves at the beat of his drum, or maybe he's just a backstabbing snake.
Nagisa: You two honestly don't believe that?
Hiiro: Yeah, you don't hate him now do you?
Aoi: I feel like Y/N spat in our faces, he betrayed Tsubaki.
Hiiro: What's gotten into you two?
Aoi: You don't need Y/N, you have me.
Tsubaki: Aoi is right. He didn't even consult with us, he abandoned me.........I don't want anything to do with him anymore.
Nagisa: Tsubaki....
